This if for all the people that have been on the river with us. There is already SEVEN miles of razor wire in the river upstream of the state and national parks. We are working for accountability. Thanks for your support!

The river is our life. We send gratitude to all the fantastic outfitters, guides and support teams that are defending the Big Bend region by fighting the wall and the razor wire. We want border security without border destruction.

Thanks to Adolfo Muñiz of Spectrum News 1 Texas for his insightful journalism!

According to studies by both the National Park Service and the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department, the national and state parks and related industries generated close to $60 million from more than 560,000 visitors in 2024.
